The Lipo family — Aryeh, Tsofia, and their seven children — lost their home in the Samaria community of Havat Gilad in a Saturday wildfire they say was intentionally set. The family had recently returned to the community after living in central Israel. All family members survived, and they are now raising funds to rebuild.

The family says the blaze was deliberately set. In a message to the public, they expressed gratitude that all nine family members escaped unharmed, but noted that the house and all its contents were lost.
